_ Memorandum to ny good friend, Clyde E. MoBride:

Mister, when you pioked Towa State aihine the
season was over you missed the fact that I picked Iowa State
before the season began. Therefore, you are disqualified as
a@ participant and relegated to the olass of guessers nS
in December, 1945, prognosticating for 1946.

In case your all-seeing eye apparently missed

my prognostications, it was Iowa State first, Oklahom seca,
Missouri and Kansas fighting for third and fourth place. Then
I thought the Aggies would be fifth and Nebraska sixth. :

Whet do you say to this, Mister?

Bincerely yours,

Director of Physical Edueation,
Varsity Basketball Coach.

P.S,. And next year, \don't you guess after the season is over!

Dear Alston:

Somekhere back in my hazy memory I remember your writing. about
a, used basketball for your son, Cleveland, but in going through
my file end siecseaticn every available source I fail to find ite

On October 25th I had this note from you: “Dear ‘Phog i= thought
- you might be interested in the enclosed newspaper clipping. You've
got them reeling, Phog, and keep fighting until they mooch out.
Regards." But this doesn't say anything about a basketball, yet I
‘do remember ‘something about it.

“puakeviiclt season is neanly over and basketballs have been like
refined gold. They have been most difficult to get, and harder to
hold on to. Everybody has been trying to get a basketball for
their son or for even some of the high schools. Many of the high
schools have had to use second-hand balls that they purchased from
other colleges and universities, so you can imagine the pressure
‘that has been on us. I will get hold of a ball and mail it to
Cleveland at 730 York Street, Denver, just as soon as I possibly
can make the arrangements . You can gount on this.

Thank you for the aves. I think we called some of the big |
boys' bluffs o.k. : |

“With all good wishes, I am

Dear “Phog"s

I have a young son, Cleveland, who is 11 year's
old. He is very much interested in basketball. In our
yerd we heve an official basketball layout. He knows of
our mutual friendship and has learned of you and your
basketball leadership. Although but 11 he takes clothes
for a 15 yeer old boy. I believe he will develope into
a basketball player, because he likes the game and has
the physical promise. I would like to buy from the
University a discarded basketball and ask that you write
your name on it. I want to pay for it, but I want one---
one that has been used in at least some pley. If you can
arrenge to send it to Cleveland McCarty, 730 York street,
Denver, and just a note from you with it I will greatly
appreciate it. Send statement to me at 1700 EB. Colfax,
Denver and I will forward check immediately.

I am with you 100% on the crusade against
gambling in Madison Square Garden. My friend Jack Carberry
feels as you do about it also. He has certainly paid you
some very high compliments.

Can't you arrange to come out for a day or so
during the A AU basketball tournament. “If you can come
please let me know. I would like to have a luncheon for
you at the Athletic Club and invite Jack and Red Nelson, of
the News, together with Mayor Stapleton and a few leading
K.U. men. It would be a fine thing for the University. And
incidentally bring your golf clubs. Its swell at the Denver
Country Club now,

@ifiterely yours,
